I remember the day my baby brother came back home from the hospital after he was born. I remember him crying and peeing on my clothes, but I still love him.
I remember hitting my younger sister's head with a toy when we were both young. I remember that my sister had a hard time breathing and that I was scolded and locked in the bathroom for a while. I remember the incident so well and will never forget it even though it happened when I was only 3 years old because it was quite a shock to me.
I remember having two hamsters. I remember that one hamster bit the other to death; I'm not able to raise a hamster after that.
* I remember going to a Summer camp deep in the forest of Canada. I remember being bitten by a mosquito as big as my pinky finger.
I remember going to Austrailia with my friends and school teachers, but not with my parents when I was only in second grade. I remember that we stayed only in the dormitory for three days without electricity and proper food. I remember this was because of the flood that was one of the biggest one in the history of Austrailia.
I remember going to America to give a speech about Korea's culture, Bibimbap. I remember getting on the newspaper and also getting the president award for it.
I remember the four weeks I spent during the summer vacation of eighth grade studying chemistry. I remember for the first three weeks, I didn't even care about getting a price on KChO. I remember that then one day, I suddenly got eager and studied very hard for the last week; I finally got the second place.
I remember going out in the competition for playing instruments. I remember that I played [Fantasie 'On Wings of Music'] and got the first place even though I was the youngest child. I remember that I gained confidence after that and now I enjoy playing the flute.
* I remember that my dad used to go and eat ice cream with me. I remember that it was a big secret between us, and I miss those days.
I remember the day when I threw up after eating raw fish; now I never eat any of those.
I remember my first mid-term exam in KMLA. I remember that I did quite well in middle school, so the scores shocked me very, very much.
* I remember having to stay in the hospital for several days because of a high fever. I remember that I had a hard time getting to sleep, so I made a snowman out of clay with my mom; it is one of the happiest moments in my life.
I remember that I used to ski a lot in the winter and I also enjoyed it. I remember injuring my ankle during gymnastics, and because of this accident, I'm now unable to ski.
Excellent and playfully poetic and full of nostalgia. Although I encourage students to remove I remembers here and there, none of yours bother me. Great essay you should hang onto. It could use a better conclusion (something a bit more lasting than the randomness of skiing in the winter.
